GTA 6 Countdown

GTA 6 trailer time in the United States

Every confirmed Grand Theft Auto VI date, converted to local time in the United States. Times account for daylight saving on each specific date, so the August and November rows can differ.

Rockstar announced the Extended Look in US Eastern time, so the Eastern row below is the reference all other times are derived from. Arizona is listed separately because it does not observe daylight saving, which puts it an hour off the rest of Mountain time in August.
